Did you get your van started - I just posted a non-starting issue under electrical.

My van turn overs over on the starter, but not firing - interested if you got this resolved.

Well hey ho i nailed that parrot to the van and zapped it.
Yes I got her started. So at the end of the day new points dizzy and new coil plus a new battery in for good measure.
Just need to tune her up then I can get to work on that inlet manifold and maybe, maybe eventually that carb???
Cheers for all the advise as always

Just got to look at the starter motor now as making strange noises. Need to check Bush and wiring etc. Might need to take it out and clean it :(
